Compact Orbitale Brass Chandelier 3 Rotating Balanced Arms, Low Ceiling Featured

About the Item

This unique compact brass chandelier has been expertly designed to work perfectly also with lower ceilings. With a 12-inch (30 cm) tall body, it allows for a 6-inch (15 cm) space to the ceiling, resulting in a well-proportioned 18-inch (45 cm) chandelier. The shades are connected to the arms with pivot joints so that the light can be oriented in different ways. Although it provides mostly ambient light reflected towards the ceiling with the shades acting as reflectors, each shade has a hole in it which shines some direct light downwards, highlighting the tips of reflecting objects such as silverware and crystalware and giving them depth. In order to create a uniform, warm light output, the brass shades, even the lacquered ones, are left in natural brass. This provides a warm ambient light. The arms and the body are made in natural solid brass and hand finished. The standard shade colors are ivory, black and natural brass. Natural patina brass comes as standard. The outline of the shades was designed to echo the iconic 1950s pieces by mid-century modern Italian studios Arteluce and Stilnovo, but with a unique and distinctive design that will add elegance and sophistication to any home. The arms have a diameter of 12 mm, with thick walls to make them perfectly rigid. The stems are made with a system that can rotate 180 degrees on each arm, making any position possible. The chandelier can be rotated when it is already lit. The lightbulb recommended is an A15 with an E26 (US) or E27 (EU) base. The shade was designed so that if an A15 bulb is used (one of the most common in the market), it will be centered with the hole. This chandelier is currently only made to order. Please contact us for any special size requirements. This fixture must only be installed by someone who is familiar with how the product is constructed and operated.

  • JENNY Large Wall Light or Sconce in Enamel & Brass by Blueprint Lighting
    By Blueprint Lighting, Stilnovo, Mathieu Matégot
    Located in New York, NY
    Introducing Jenny, the latest vintage-inspired fixture from Blueprint Lighting. Named for multi-hyphenate Jenny Mollen; NYT best-selling author, actress, design enthusiast, mom of 2 and wife of actor Jason Biggs. From our Chief Luminary, Kelly Aaron: "I have been working closely with Jenny off and on for the past year while she gives her NYC apartment a facelift--it's been so fun! She and I share a love of 1950s French design, which is obviously a hallmark of the Blueprint aesthetic. One day Jenny texted a pic of a single vintage mid-century French wall sconce she loved and asked if Blueprint could make it for her. Funny enough--I, too, had seen that same sconce the day before and already had my Creative Director/Husband figuring out how to fabricate it. How great is that?! It was meant to be!" The Jenny sconce...

  • Lady Dormore - A 16th Century Portrait of a key member of Shakespeare's England
    Located in London, GB
    Lady Dormer, Mary Browne c. 1592 oil on panel 35 x 29 inches, unframed; 41 x 34.75 inches, inc. frame Inscribed 'Lady Dormore' Mary married Henry Wriothesley, 2nd Earl of Southampton who gave birth to Henry Wriothesley, 3rd Earl of Southampton - one of the great figures in Shakespears"s circle and founder of the Virginia company, developers of Virginia USA. Henry Wriothesley, born 6 October 1573 at Cowdray House, Sussex, was the only son of Henry Wriothesley, 2nd Earl of Southampton, by Mary Browne, the only daughter of Anthony Browne, 1st Viscount Montague, and his first wife, Jane Radcliffe.[5] He had two sisters, Jane, who died before 1573, and Mary (c. 1567 – 1607), who in June 1585 married Thomas Arundell, 1st Baron Arundell of Wardour.[6] After his father's death, Southampton's mother married firstly, on 2 May 1595, as his second wife, Sir Thomas Heneage (d. 17 October 1595), Vice-Chamberlain of the Household, and secondly, between 5 November 1598 and 31 January 1599, Sir William Hervey. She died in November 1607.[7] Early life When his father died on 4 October 1581 Southampton inherited the earldom and landed income valued at £1097 6s per annum. His wardship and marriage were sold by the Queen to her kinsman, Charles, Lord Howard of Effingham, for £1000. According to Akrigg, Howard then "entered into some further agreement, of which no documentation can now be found, which transferred to Lord Burghley personally the custody and marriage of the young Earl, but left Howard holding his lands", and late in 1581 or early in 1582 Southampton, then eight years of age, came to live at Cecil House in the Strand.[8] In October 1585, at age twelve, Southampton entered St John's College, Cambridge,[9] graduating M.A. on 6 June 1589.[10] His name was entered at the Gray's Inn legal society before he left the university, and he was admitted on 29 February 1588.[11] On Southampton's 16th birthday, 6 October 1589, Lord Burghley noted Southampton's age in his diary, and by 1590 Burghley was negotiating with Southampton's grandfather, Anthony Browne, 1st Viscount Montague, and Southampton's mother, Mary, for a marriage between Southampton and Lord Burghley's eldest granddaughter, Elizabeth Vere, daughter of Burghley's daughter, Anne Cecil, and Edward de Vere...
